Okay, so we all know about taking GH, or at least we should if we contemplate using it. But has anyone ever tried using a growth releasing hormone to get your body to make its own and release it?
I'm referring to the hormone they use when doing a GH stimulating test. It seems like it could work, however, maybe, you could burn out your own ability to produce it if you did. Doing this would also suppose your body is fully capable of producing GH normally.
I got the below from Wikipedia while looking into the GH stimulating test I have coming up soon.
"GHRH is released from neurosecretory nerve terminals of these arcuate neurons, and is carried by the hypothalamo-hypophyseal portal system to the anterior pituitary gland where it stimulates growth hormone (GH) secretion by stimulating the growth hormone releasing hormone receptor. GHRH is released in a pulsatile manner, stimulating similar pulsatile release of GH. In addition, GHRH also promotes slow-wave sleep directly. [2] Growth hormone is required for normal postnatal growth, bone growth, regulatory effects on protein, carbohydrate, and lipid metabolism. [1]"
